Thanks a lot for the clarification. So, how do we want to proceed? Provided that Thomas' underline trick works with the MS-Windows theme, we could maybe add this to the Wiki by providing a copy&paste ready gtkrc snippet for Windows users who want to a better visual indication of the active tab? That would be cleaner and easier than a new preference just for the underlining. Regards, Enrico -- Get my GPG key from http://www.uvena.de/pub.asc
